the Father and came down from him we heard him unfolding all these shadows and coverings of the Old Testament expounding Moses and the Prophets taking off the vail and uncovering the Ark and Oracles And how did our hearts burn within uâ— while he talked with us and opened to uâ— the Sâ—riptures We heard him daily in the Synagogues expound the Scriptures whereof himself was the living Commentary when he read them we saw the true Exposition before our eyes Now my beloved you may be admitted to hear him too for the sum of the living words that câ—me â—â—om the Word of Life are written his Seâ—mons are abâ—idged in the Evangelists that yâ—u mâ—y read them and when you read them think within your seâ—f that you hear his holy mouth speak them Sâ—t your selves as amongst hiâ— Discipleâ— thâ—t sâ—â—â—u may believe and believiâ—g mâ—y hâ—ve eternâ—l life for for this end aâ—e they written Ioh. 20.30 31. SERMON IVÂ· 1 Joh. 1.2 Which we have seen c. THere is a gradation of certainty here hearing himself speak is more then heaâ—ing by report but an eye-witness is better then ten ear-witnesses and handling adds a thiâ—d assurance for the sense of touching gives the last and greatest evidence of truth It is true that the sense is properly correspondent to sensible things and of it self can only give testimony to his Humanity yet I conceive these are here alledged for both even also to witnesse his glorious â—nd Divine Nature which though it did not ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ under sight and handling yet it discovered it self to be lâ—tent under that visible covering of flesh by sensible effectâ— no lesse then the spirit of mâ—n which is invisible manifests its pâ—eâ—ence in the body by such operations sensible as can proceed from no other principle And theâ—eâ—oâ—e this faithful witness adds which we have looked upon which relates not only to the outward attention of the eyes but points at the inward intention and affection of the heart our senses did bâ—ing in such strange and marvellouâ— objectâ— to our minds that we stood gazing and beheld it over and over again looked upon it with â—eason concluding what it might be we gave intertainment to our minds to consider it wisely and deliberatly and fastned our eyes that we might detain our hearts in the consideration of such a glorious person From this then ye have two things clear one is that our Lord Jesus Christ was a true man and that his Disciples had all possible evidence of it which the History more abundantly shews he conversed with them familiarly he eat and drank with them yea his conversation in the world was very much condescending in outward behaviour to the customes of the woâ—ld he eat with Pharisees when they invited him he refused not but he was more bold with Publicans and sinners to conveâ—s with them as being their greatest friend He was uncivil to none would deterr none through a rigid austere conversation and indeed to testifie the truth oâ— his Humane Nature he came so low to partake of all humane infirmities without sin and to be subject to extraordinary afflictions and crosses as to tâ—e eyes of the world it did quite extinguish his Divine Gloâ—y and bury iâ— in misbelief This whâ—â—h we speak of as a testimony and evidence thâ—t he wâ—s mâ—n was the very grand stumbling-block and â—ffence of the Jews and Gentiles which they made use of as an evidence and certain testimony that he was not God the evidence of the one seems to give in evidence to the other But let us conâ—ider this for it is a sweet and pleasâ—nt Sâ—bject if our hearts were suitably framed to delight in it that there was as much evidence to the conviction of all mens senses of his Divine Mâ—jesty as of his Humane Infirmity and tâ—â—t there aâ—e two concuâ—â—ing evidences which enligâ—tens one another which we shall shew pâ—rtly â—â—om his own woâ—ks and miracles and partly from the more then miraculous successe and progresse of the Gospel aâ—ter him For the first Iohn testifies that not only they saw the baseness of his outward shape but the glory of the only begotten Son of God full of grace and truth Joh. 1.14 Iohn the Baptist sent some of hiâ— Diâ—cipleâ— becâ—use of their own unbelieâ— to enqâ—ire Jesuâ— Art thou he or look we for another And what answer gave he them What reason to convince them Go saith he and tell what ye hâ—ve seen and heard that the blind sâ—e the lâ—mâ— wâ—lk and the lepers are cleansed the deaf hear thâ— dead are raised and the poor reâ—eive the Gâ—spel And blessed is he who ever shâ—ll not for my outwaâ—d unseemlinesse and basenesse offend But go by that in to the glory that shines out in such works It is said in Luke 7.21 that the same hour he â—ured many Befoâ—e he spoke in answer he answered them by his deeds he gave a visible demonstration of that they doubted of For they could not but see a power above created power in these workâ— which surpasse Nature and Art so many wonderful works done so often repeated beâ—oâ—e so many thousands even many of his watchful and observant enemies and all done so easily by a word iâ—finit cures for number and quality wrought which passed the skill of all Physitians Devils dispossessed life restored water converted into excellent wine without the maturation of the Sun or help of the Vine tree a little bread so strangely enlarged to the satisfaction of many thousands and more remaining then was laid down the winds and seas obeying his very word and composing themselves to silence at his rebuke and infinit moe of this kind Are they not in the common apprehension of men of a degree superiour to that of nature Who could restore life but he that gave it Whom would the Devils obey but him at whom they tremble Who could transubstantiat water into wine but he that created both these substances and every year by a long circuit of the operations of nature turns it into wine Who could feed seven thousand with that which a few persons would exhaust but he that can creat it of nothing â—nd bâ— whose woâ—d all thiâ— ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ woâ—ld staâ—ted out of nothing Nay let us suppose these thingâ— to be done only by divine assistance by some peculiar divine inflâ—ence then certainly if we consider the very end of this miraculous assistance of a creature thâ—t it was to confâ—â—m the Doctâ—ine deliveâ—ed by him and make such a deep impression of the tâ—uth of it in the heâ—â—tâ— of all that it cannot be â—ooted out this being the very genuine end of the wisdom of God in such works it must needâ— follow that all that which Christ revealed both of himself and the Father of his own being with him from the beginning of his â—eing one with him and being hiâ— eternal Son all this must needâ— be inâ—allibly tâ—ue for it is not supposible to agâ—ee with the wisdom and goodnesse of
